Agriculture is the backbone of the municipalitys economy which utilizes 30% of the total land area. The 2 major crops are coconut and corn. Dauin is labeled as the resort capital of the Province of Negros Oriental because of the presence of numerous resorts and dive shops catering to tourists. Diving is the primary reason why foreigners come and the marine life of Apo Island is at par or even better than that of the other famous diving sites. There is a marine sanctuary in every coastal barangay operated by the bantay dagat which is a major contributor to the local income. The coastal resource management program is well managed which is in line with the administrations thrust which is food security. The lying- inn clinic and TB DOTS center made possible thru the grant of the European Commission and counterpart of the LGU, are now fully operational. Almost 100% of the deliveries are facility- based to safeguard the lives of the mother and child. The local government is on its 9th year of enrolling indigent families into the Medicare Para sa Masa of Philhealth which provides health insurance coverage. Simple laboratory procedures like CBC. Urinalysis, Blood typing, Sputum Exam, Fecalysis and Pregnancy tet are available in the Main Health Center with corresponding fees as provided for in the ordinance. Lately, another health insurance, the Provincial Health Insurance of Negros Oriental (PHINO) is gaining ground in the Municipality. It started with the enrollment of some bantay dagat members and now all the Barangay Health Workers are encouraged to enroll. The low malnutrition rate has been consistent for the past years which could be attributed to proper implementation of health programs, strong LGU support and linkages with other line agencies and NGOs. Dauin is an active member of the Metropolitan Inter- Local Health Zone. The new administration under the leadership of Mayor Neil B. Credo is very supportive of all the DOH programs. The Municipality has conducted a Blood- letting activity, medical and dental mission last May 5, 2011 in cooperation with the MILHZ, Philippine National Red Cross and Energy Development Corporation. This was followed by the EDC- sponsored Operation Tuli on May 24, 2011 which was very successful.
